[quote=Anonymous]We have a minivan and a sedan, 20 and 15 years old respectively. Looking to replace both (one of the kids will be taking the sedan) With kids out of the house and both of us working from home for the most part, we really need one good vehicle that can be used locally as well as to haul stuff around once in a while (home depot shopping, moving kids out of dorm and back, etc.).

EVs: We don't mind leasing EVs to test things out and did look into Ioniq 5. Once you cut through the noise the "deals" are not as great as they are cut out to be. A $249 lease is really over $450 once you factor in the downpayment. The capitalized cost on which the lease is based on (SEL trim), is also pretty much the same as a well-respected/reviewed gas SUV (e.g. Subaru outback Onyx. This matters if we were to buy out the lease or plan on buying the car at the end of the lease).

Hybrid/PHEV: Not sure if the premium in cost over a regular gas car is worth it. PHEVs are nice for gas-free local driving. Not sure if there are good lease deals on those. Have to look.

Gas: We are looking at the usual suspects - CRV, Subaru (outback/forrester), Toyota.

Any deals/recommendations/thoughts? [/quote]
